lyrics

Oh my, my!
Where had you been?
I was such a bashful boy till you came on the scene.

Oh my, my!
How you made me feel.
I can’t get enough of you beg borrow or steal.

Oh my, my!
What do you see?
I love the long cool way you look at me.

Oh my, my!
Such a gentle touch.
I’ve never valued simple things so much.

If I could pause for just one minute,
I would breathe the deepest sigh.
Sometimes I think that I have surely reached my limit,
But it’s much too soon for me to say goodbye.

Oh my, my!


All you kings and queens,
Justified by birth,
Your gold and diamonds cannot buy what we are worth.

Don’t get me wrong,
I do not resent,
But they say the riches of the heart are heaven sent.

All these years I have been lonely,
Walking slowly with the stony ground below me,
And heavy heart.
All these years I have been lonely,
Walking slowly with the stony ground below me,
Back to the start.

Oh my, my!
Where did you go?
I followed your fading footsteps frozen in the snow.

Oh my, my!
What can I say?
I’ll never regret the day you came my way.

If I could pause for just one minute,
I would breathe the deepest sigh.
Sometimes I think that I have surely reached my limit,
But it’s much too soon for me to say goodbye.

Oh my, my!

I wrote songs for 3 years before I began recording during the Covid lockdown.

Emil combines intricate finger-picked acoustic guitar with impressive string arrangements and the merest hint of psychedelia... ... more
